Updating lab resource data

The function that this topic describes might not be available, depending on how lab management permissions and client access licenses have been defined for your user account. You must be integrated with external provider applications that have inventory capability (for example, IBM® Rational® Build Forge® or IBM Tivoli® products such as Tivoli Application Dependency Discovery Manager and Tivoli Provisioning Manager), you can update lab resource data to display the latest lab resource configurations and new lab resources that have been added.
You must have an external provider application with inventory capability installed.
To update lab resource data:
  1. In the left sidebar, point to the Lab Management icon (Lab Management), and click All Inventory History. The All Inventory History editor opens.
  2. Click Synchronize. This synchronizes the IBM Rational Quality Manager lab resource database with the database of the configured inventory provider.
  3. Click Discover to update the lab resource data with the latest configurations for each lab resource. The discovery operation can run for a long time, depending on the provider system and the number of lab resources it manages.
  4. Click a lab resource to display detailed lab resource information.
If a lab resource has been recently added to the database, the status is New Asset. If the configuration of the lab resource has changed since you last viewed it, the status is Asset updated.
